    Help Messages sometimes not being sent. Stuck in "sending".

    Reactivated my old ZMax Pro recently, and noticing that sometimes, text and picture messages aren't being sent. I get a "network unavailable" notification. Anyone know what steps to take to fix it? It's through MetroPCS/TMobile's network, if that helps. Thanks guys.

    Help Is there a way to schedule the phone to turn off and on automatically?

    Like maybe set it to shut off at my bedtime and come back on a half hour before my alarm is set to go off? Thanks guys.

    Help Where can I get the "official" or "original" replacement battery?

    My battery needs to be replaced, and the cell phone repair place I'm going to use doesn't have it in stock, and isn't sure his supplier will have it, but he says if I can get it he'll put it in, but it has to be the original or "official" battery. Where can I get it? Thanks guys

    Have MetroPCS. Unlimited data plan. Past 2 weeks there has been little to no data.

    I'll begin by saying that the phone was working beautifully initially. I have made NO changes to it in any way. Got a nice, new ZTE ZMax Pro the day it came out after reading glowing reviews about it. I enjoyed it immensely...for a month...until I started losing network connectivity. First...

    Root [Noob Question] What is rooting, and why do people do it. And what is Cyanogen Mod?

    I've been seeing these terms tossed around quite a bit on the forums, but I don't know what they mean.

    Help So, shot a five minute video, and phone won't UL it to Youtube now

    Instead, I get an error message telling me "Cannot upload a video larger than 1gig." It's a five minute vid. Shot from a cell phone. There's no WAY it can be a gig. Even better is this....when I connect my phone to a computer and look at the file folders marked "Videos" and "MyVideos"...

    Help Unsupported File Type plague?

    So without going into a longwinded rant, I've been getting the "Unsupported File Type" message. It started last week or so with pictures I would take and videos I would shoot with the phone itself. I'd go to view them on the phone afterwards, and be unable to, greeted with the error message...

    Help Anyone else get a little lag sometimes? Like no touchscreen response when trying to answer a call?

    My Indulge is fairly new and I don't have much trouble with it, but the trouble I do have seems to be lag related. Past couple of days (but only once each day, and, strangely, about the same time each day 5:15pm or so) when my wife has tried to call me, I can see the phone ringing, but when I...

    You'd think that there'd be an app that arranges your app icons on your home screens by usage

    In other words, how cool would it be to have an app that auto arranges all your application icons onto your 7 home screens based on usage (favorites being used most and then in descending order). So of course home screen 1 would have the icons to the apps you use most commonly, and so on down...

    Help How do I assign Home Screen 1 (out of the 7) to pop up when I press the Home key?

    So I have 7 home screens, right? And when I press the little "home" hard key on the bottom left of the phone, that has the house on it, it pops over to home screen 3 for some reason. You'd think there'd be a way to assign which screen you want it to pop to when you press that key, but I...

    Help Battery drains completely overnight, despite shutting down background apps

    Hey guys, I just got my Indulge, and I love it like you wouldn't believe. I found out immediately that the phone is a huge battery hog, and that this is normal for a smartphone. Especially a 4G smart phone. Trouble is, I usually use my phone's alarm to wake me up in the morning for work at...

    Hi guys. Brand new smart phone owner/Android user/ Indulge owner. Educate me!

    Hey guys, I just got my Indulge yesterday, and I have to say that coming from a "regular" non-smart phone (Freeform II) to this is amazing! But I don't know the first thing about how to use this bad boy. What is some advice and things about the indulge I should know? What are some really...

    1st time smart phone owner/1st time Android user/Proud Samsung Indulge owner. Educate me!

    Hi guys, I just bought my new phone and I love it. I've heard that one of the greatest things about Android is that there are a gajillion apps out there. What are some "can't live without" apps (cheap or free preferably) that I should get? And where are some places to go to get apps...
